Pitifully, the only one of those I've seen is V for Vendetta. Several have been highly recommended by friends and family, but we just haven't made it happen.
A similar 80's or 90's list I would have likely seen every one.
Having kids puts a hamper on such things...

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

I found the movie on sci-fi lists and best-offs, otherwise I wouldn't credit it that much either.

True, but I think fantasy was not in the mind of Tupan when he asked about sci-fi.

Other (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) should be your clear winner, I believe (probably mine too), although it depends how much sci-fi over romance and fantasy it is for you (or in general).

District 9 was quite good.

From this list, probably A Scanner Darkly (possibly helped by the fact that I'm a huge fan of Philip K Dick's books and most of the movies I've seen adapting them), or District 9. Gonna go with Scanner Darkly this time.

In your opinion, the best sci-fi movie from the 00's is...
